A Novel Generalized Intensity-Hue-Saturation (GIHS) Based Pan-Sharpening Method With Variational Hessian Transferring

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The popular intensity-hue-saturation (IHS) pan-sharpening method can provide high spatial quality while suffering from some spectral distortion, mainly due to the fact that it cannot estimate an accurate intensity image to substitute the original ...

Information flow and the adoption of soil‐improving and water conservation measures, and household welfare: Insights from a randomized controlled trial in Uganda

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Extension services are designed to facilitate the flow of information from researchers to farmers. However, information failures continue to impede the diffusion of soil‐improving and water conservation technologies in Sub‐Saharan African countries. We use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to examine the impact of an extension‐based campaign

Multi‐Spectral Gaussian Splatting with Neural Color Representation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) [KKLD23] has transformed novel‐view synthesis from RGB images, yet remains restricted to the visible spectrum. Many applications, including agricultural monitoring, rely on multi‐spectral imaging, where spectral camera alignment and scalability pose major challenges.
